Looks like someone let Rodolphe loose on that A-1!!

Have fun??

Thanks for posting those recent pictures! I see the G-man is working hard to make a show piece out of that old bird!
(I check his site for progress, it is coming, but a lot of airplane for a 2~4 guys to work on).

Frantishek, did you find more informations on the "could be" X-Geräte Ju 88A-1 ?

Unfortunately my contribution is very small, I do not live in Norway (wish I did LOL).

I spent some time there applying my aircraft skillz to fix some items in the Ju-88, He-111, and Ju-52 (not all as good as I would like, out of practice)
Most of the time I was investigating the construction and system details of the aircraft, basically the German design philosophy.

To your question, according to G-man the X is not a device, weapon, or marking, but a simple 'rune' or ancient letter. Why is another question.
I should ask him again, in case he found something new.


Oh, and those still shots from the SOW WIP is just that, a WIP. Need to see the current (finished??) model.

now let me seee....
